WWE Raw Results: Biggest Winners, Losers and Moments from September 7

Seth Rollins was all over Monday's episode of Raw, competing in two matches, appearing in several backstage segments and cutting a promo to kick off the night's festivities. The Architect continued to prove why he is WWE's MVP here in 2015, forming the foundation of the show while simultaneously selling the two biggest matches of the upcoming Night of Champions pay-per-view.

His interactions with Sting via the Titan Tron were solid, his appearances alongside The Authority and The New Day in backstage pre-taped vignettes were even better and his in-ring work was nearly flawless.

Again, Rollins earned biggest winner status from Raw, the product of his continued excellence as a character and worker. Despite some uneven, questionable booking at points, he continues to be the brightest light in what has proven to be an otherwise dark, directionless company at times.

The world heavyweight and United States champion was not the only one to enjoy a productive and eventful Raw, though. There were the current tag team champions, who again found themselves in the night's main event. 

What about The Wyatt Family, who pummeled Randy Orton for no reason other than the fact that he was seen conversing with Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns?

And then there are the losers of the night, those Superstars who lost considerable momentum or booked so questionably they cannot be considered anything else.

The September 7 episode of Raw was a mixed bag of solid storytelling, some fine wrestling and creative decisions that made fans question what the company was thinking. Yet through it all, these Superstars stood out, some for the right reasons and others for the wrong.

Losers: The Ascension

This past Thursday on SmackDown, Konnor and Viktor were undisputed winners thanks to their pairing with Stardust in the Cosmic Wasteland faction. It felt very much like the rejuvenation of The Ascension's career on the main roster and an opportunity to make a name for themselves after months of irrelevancy.

That was all erased Monday night as they were jobbed out to Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns, with Stardust nowhere to be found and nary a mention of the aforementioned Cosmic Wasteland trio.

Why would the company go through the trouble of booking an angle in which the team aligns itself with Stardust in the war with the company's resident superhero Neville, only to act as though it never happened while booking The Ascension to lose what was essentially a glorified squash?

After a brief tease of something meaningful coming their way, The Ascension are once again damaged goods, their credibility hurt by the inconsistency of WWE Creative.

Winners: The New Day

Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and Big E continued their monumental September with another appearance in a televised main event. This time, they partnered with Seth Rollins to face John Cena and The Prime Time Players in a huge 6-Man Tag Team match.

Prior to that contest, though, the trio again demonstrated its comedic timing and tremendous entertainment value during a backstage confrontation with Rollins, Edge, Christian and The Dudley Boyz. Woods playing the trombone while Edge and Christian broke out the kazoos was a fantastic bit.

Kingston may have eaten the pinfall for his team in the aforementioned main event, but there is no denying that the current tag champions are enjoying a push typically reserved for singles stars. In the process, they are revitalizing the tag division as the heels that the entire title picture is built around.

Their impending matches with Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley should be great fun, while next week's title defense against Titus O'Neil and Darren Young could be a show-stealer if given enough time.

Winners: Paige and Sasha Banks

While the Divas Revolution still has plenty of problems keeping it from succeeding, the developing rivalry between Paige and Sasha Banks is a step in the right direction.

The big story may be the three-way feud between Team Bella, Team PCB and Team BAD, but the fact that Creative has taken the initiative to book two programs within that feud is fantastic. The most obvious is Charlotte vs. Nikki Bella for the Divas title.

Over on the side, though, is Sasha, who has scored three consecutive victories over Paige, frustrating the British-born Diva.

That is the type of booking that will bring about the revolution WWE keeps hyping. Giving the Divas distinct characters and writing more than one rivalry for the nine women involved will allow fans to buy into an effort to give the female performers more exposure rather than tossing them into one mangled mess of a story.

The contest between Paige and Sasha was a really good, hard-fought one that showcased the chemistry that exists between them. A higher-profile match, with more time and a more developed story, could result in something truly special.

Loser: Cesaro

The Swiss Superman was not only tossed aside, left to battle The Miz in a match set up via pre-taped vignette from earlier in the day, he was unceremoniously attacked by Big Show, who waddled to the ring and left both competitors lying for...some reason.

Despite Cesaro delivering the best performances of his career, WWE Creative has again failed him. The company has lost interest in pushing him and saddled him with Miz and Big Show, the losers of the most recent intercontinental title program.

At what point Cesaro gets frustrated and lashes out against management for their inconsistent booking of him over the last three years remains to be seen, but his fans have to be growing impatient, watching someone so supremely talented be so mishandled by the company.
